The Brooklyn Nets have no plans to discuss James Harden trade scenarios ahead of Thursday’s deadline, sources told Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report.
Officials from the Nets maintain that Harden has not voiced any preference to play elsewhere despite an increase of reports suggesting otherwise.
If Harden does not become available, the Philadelphia 76ers are expected to focus on marginal improvements to their roster around Joel Embiid. The 76ers have clear needs for supplementary ball-handling and rebounding.
Paul Reed and Isaiah Joe are the 76ers players most often mentioned as trade candidates by rival executives.
